Sensible drinking

While not forgetting the dangers of drinking too much, small amounts are very enjoyable. In order to slow down alcohol absorption into the bloodstream, try to eat when you drink and dilute drinks whenever possible. Don't drink just because others are, but only when you really want to - and don't encourage others to drink; it can be far from kind or generous. Be aware of the amount you are drinking. watch yourself to check that you are not falling into a habit of drinking several glasses of wine every night after work and be vigilant for your friends too.
